Smith recaps how he feels about re-reading Rough Stone Rolling. Joe watched the Netflix Kanye West documentary (Jeen-Yuhs, 2022). He liked the documentary, but he’s sti...

Smith tells Joe about Brigham Morris Young, it’s news to Joe. Joe tells Smith about Ervil LeBaron, who kind of sounds like a Mormon Charlie Manson. Joe is still a little disturbed over the allegations against G Bitner Hinckley from The Godmakers 2. Smith says that he never felt a personal relationship with Jesus while in the church.
